2x2 MM Bullet Cab for Trifari Set

[frockstarvintage]

Hello all, Looking for a single loose stone to complete this set & wondering if any of you may have one to spare. Of course I would pay for the stone and shipping.

It's a 2mmx2mm bullet cab in cobalt. Here is the set :

Will also check Mr.Stones etc, just asking here as well. Thanks 🙂

I don't have one but if I did I'd share it. Have you looked at Jan's and DreamtimeCreations?

Thank you Allison! Haven't checked the sites you mention (what is Jan's?). I did check Mr.Stones & Fire Mountain - no luck.

Hi -- here are some possibilities for you. One of the things you might encounter is a lack of uniformity in the name of what you're looking for. You've already described them as "bullets" -- you might also call them "tall" cabochons, "high" cabochons, etc.

I've bought a lot of stones from Jan's. They have a lot of different kinds of stones and it's not unusual for them to bring in new stock at any given time.

I've bought things from Dreamtime. It seems like they have lots of things one time and then not very many things the next.

Try searching on etsy. There are a lot of stone sellers and you might find something there.

There are a lot of rhinestones available on Ebay -- here are a couple of names I was given by someone who does a lot of rehab on old jewelry. I'm sure you can find many others.

ebay seller sinopianist has over 5,000 listings.  My friend said Swarovski stones are available from this seller, plus other manufacturers. This seller is in China.

NOTE-- THIS IS A PERSONAL OPINION! Some good things are sold from China; some not-so-good things are sold from China. There appear to be quite a few stone manufacturers there, so getting good products is hit or miss, and success may require tring out a few different suppliers. From my experience, you should read item descriptions extremely carefully. Be skeptical. Stones described as "high-quality crystals" may or may not be high quality. Anyone can use that term -- wouldn't do them much good to advertise them as low quality!

Wow, thanks Allison! Checked Jan's & Dreamtime..... will check the others as time allows. I appreciate the suggestions.
